Honestly, I enjoy listening to "To The Beginning" more than "Oath Sign". Don't get me wrong I love both but "To The Beginning" just clicked more I suppose. It also fit the season perfectly and the animation went along well with it. I wish more openings could make me feel emotion like it.

I cant help but say its hard to choose either one since they were both perfect. Since one makes me feel strong powerful and ready for action. While the other makes me feel more emotional and careing on a spirit level.
In the end my heart cant lie and it says Oath Sign(by Lisa) is best.(my opinion tho)

Personally I liked part 2's OP song To the Beginning(by Kalafina) better this time around.

I prefere Oath's sign. The music and video as well.

I'm a huge Kalafina fan so it's definitely to the beginning for me. Oath Sign was real good too, though. Both fit their respective seasons well, the other being more upbeat than the other.

To the Beginning by far.

I enjoyed Oath Sign way more than To the Beginning.

Most novel readers would choose To the Beginning because of how well it fits.

I wonder if it is so hard for anime only viewers to see how much it fits...

both are great songs so I can hardly make a choice between them. But to be honest Oath Sign seems to be a little bit more favourable if I have to pick up one. I like LiSA's voice :)

They're both amazing songs, but if I had to choose, I would say To the Beginning. This is because To the Beginning had a more Fate/Zero ish feel to it.
The first OP sounds like a song that would be normally popular and the video shows that it's an anime with a lot of fighting

The second OP just reminds me of Fate/Zero and its video shows more about the characters in F/Z themselves. It shows relationships, the characters doing their things, and things that are shown in the actual anime. I particularly like scenes such as: Saber standing on the hill with the anguished face, Kiritsugu drowning/Irisviel comforting him, etc.

Considering how To The Beginning is dominating the polls, I guess not.

Can't choose. Both gave me such an epic eargasm.

Im quite suprised by the results. I thought oath sign was 100x better than to the beginning.

The first opening.

I definitely wasn't surprised. To the Beginning just plain fits the somber tone Fate/Zero has and it's really as simple as that. I mean, I personally don't mind Oath Sign, but it just doesn't fit the series as well as the latter one does. I would imagine some people, including me, voted for To The Beginning because of that.

Search up the lyrics and you'll understand.

Am I just reading too much into it, or are the lyrics of "Oath Sign" sung from Saber's POV to Shirou after she finally comes to terms with herself and discards that stupid wish of hers?
What with the title being *Oath* sign, as well as lyrics like
"If I pick up this fallen hope and join it with tomorrow,
this entwined and distorted wish can also be set free."

There *are* several lines that fit Kiritsugu perfectly as well, but assuming the lyrics do not change points of view, I'd go for Saber over Kiritsugu.

Or am I just imagining things and the lyrics are just generic and purely coincidental?

I feel like both openings are amazing, but To The Beginning is more epic and gives me goosebumps sometimes. :]

Both are great; Fate/zero S1 is one of the few animes that manages to have a Great OP/ED at same time (for my taste at least). In fact there was a time that my fav OP was Oath of Sign and i liked it much more than To the Beginning. But right now, after listening to both, i conclude that i can't choose over one. Love them equally.
